- Well, I did, except the location is approximate. The exact location is hard to find out. We drove to the end of the road and then we walked, and we walked, and we walked... There used to be a road File:It used to be a road, but it was covered by law flow.jpg but now as long as an eye could see in three direction there was only lava. We met few people walking back, and I asked them, if they saw red lava.They said no, too far. So we continued to walk. Few times we crossed an active lava flow that was floating in w:lava tubes just beneath our feet File:Lava tube.jpg and sometimes red lava innocently appeared out of nowhere at the surface File:Lava ttongue.jpg. Here's the image of the whole scene File:Lava enter Pacific in Hawaii volcano NP.jpg just to give you a slight idea how much we walked. BTW after we walked through sulfur dioxin our video camera worked no more. And now, when you know everything, you just have to support the image (just kidding) :) Thank you--Mbz1 (talk) 23:31, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
- Support Although the picture is a little bit out of focus - it's probably a moment where you don't have that much time to focus. So it's excellent for me.--HouseGhostDiscussion 09:55, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Support An awe inspiring scene. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 10:15, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Support great photo. --Herby talk thyme 11:22, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose interesting, but blurry --Dmitry A. Mottl (talk) 15:35, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oppose The image is very blurry. Just because the subject is interesting doesn't mean it's a featured picture.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 23:06, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- Info I have no doubt a much better image could have been taken, but some quality problems are due to smock, sulfur dioxin and extreme heat. Thank you.--Mbz1 (talk) 23:25, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
- May I cite this relevant passage from the FP Guidlines: A bad picture of a very difficult subject is a better picture than a good picture of an ordinary subject. A good picture of a difficult subject is an extraordinary photograph. Sarcastic ShockwaveLover (talk) 09:23, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

- Oppose sorry it is really kind of blurry and I would prefer a not so tight crop. I also think that you exaggerated a bit with the red of the lava. You have unedited pics where the lava looks more realistic imho. --AngMoKio (talk) 20:19, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- The image you refer to is a different shot. Thank you.--Mbz1 (talk) 20:42, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- I would really: like to see this be promoted. --Notyourbroom (talk) 04:09, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

- Support I give this pic my support as the upper one is concerning the red of the lava over-edited, and I would like see a realistic pic getting featured. --AngMoKio (talk) 07:44, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
